Dr Divera Twisk, a member of the ICSC Scientific Committee, has joined CARRS-Q and will co‑host ICSC2019. Together, we will ensure that the conference remains true to its ongoing goals of providing a forum in which those involved in cycling safety research can share their latest findings and challenges with fellow researchers, practitioners and policymakers.

Holding the ICSC in the Australasia for the first time will provide a wonderful opportunity to increase the global reach of the conference through the involvement of delegates and keynote speakers from some of the world’s most populous cycling nations. In addition, Brisbane’s climate, accessibility and safety offers the ideal host location, complemented by exceptional meeting facilities at the riverside campus of Queensland University of Technology.
